We've split the page into zones!

Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.

"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to say a big THANK-YOU for all the birthday well-wishes. I was looking through my gallery and noticed I've been a bit lazy with posting new stuff. I have a few new pieces that I just haven't gotten around to putting up yet, so I'll try to get to them in the next few days. I really appreciate all the comments and encouragement with my art, so thanks a lot. I hope the coming year will be a great one. Cheers.

Hi all. I'm starting to get a few pics in the gallery now, so here's Amber's little intro. I've been drawing all my life, gradually improving and learning new skills. Like many, I'm self-taught, so my style and skill-level are constantly evolving. I started out in graphite (which I still use a lot), but have more recently started exploring charcoal, pastels, water-colors and the like. DeviantART is the most amazing site, and it's a little intimidating posting my work with so many brilliant artists out there. I really appreciate your comments and visits...it's very validating. If anyone has a picture or person they'd like to suggest I try my hand at, by all means send me an email and I'll give it a look. Commission work is also very welcome. I should be posting new stuff every week or so, so don't be a stranger. ThanX.

Wow Amber you are truly a brilliant artist. You have an amazing gallery. Love all of your works. Would you mind telling which tools do you use for your artworks. I mean what brand of charcoal, paper, anything else? The way you use charcoal is just outstanding.

Thanks so much. Glad you like my work. To answer your question, I use Artwerx charcoals for most of my work...they're about the cheapest charcoal pencils I can get, but I find them to be better than any others I've tried. I use blending stumps, tortillions and cotton balls for most of the shading.
